I installed mine yesterday. The fitment is PERFECT.

It sure took a LONG time doing it by myself, but I wanted to be exact. Definitely worth it, though! =)

* I had some trouble seating the lip over the bumper, but that was due to its perfect tight fitment and the fact that I was by myself. Moreover, a good way to make sure the rubber seal sits nicely and won't fold over unto itself is to simply run a business card along the length of the gap between the seal and your bumper.

Mine came today.
I immediately took it out of the box and put it up against the car to see how it looks. Fitment is so perfect that it sits in place on it's own, so I could step back and bask in it's awesomeness.

Did I just say "Awesomeness"?

Anywho... I'll install it this weekend. We've been getting some horrible weather lately. Thunderstorms and we even had a tornado watch today, so the ride is filthy.
I'll bathe her this weekend and then post pics once the install is complete.
I'm also flying solo, so I'll put aside a couple of hours to complete the job.

I received mine on Monday and finally had a chance to get it installed last night. All I can say is that it's amazing how something so small can make the front end look SSOOOO much better!! The spoiler was double boxed and well bubble wrapped - definitely well protected. Thanks for the excellent service and speedy/trustworthy delivery, Rick!

I was fortunate enough to have a couple of friends come on over, hang out, and help me put this on. Pizza and beer are great lures! Having a second, or third, set of hands there for the final fitment is very beneficial. The install went fairly smoothly, although the template for the wheel well hole placement threw us off for like 10 minutes (I swear the instruction diagram was an optical illusion). It took us about 2 or 2.5 hours to put it on, with a number of beer, pizza, & bathroom breaks. I should note that I've never done any installs or mods, and neither have either of my two friends. Although, we are all fairly mechanically inclined (notice the climbing wall in the background ).

I threw together a few photos from the install showing the templates and the final outcome, along with some before & after shots. Hopefully, this will be beneficial to you all. I'll try to get some better before/after comparison thrown together.

Good stuff, looks great. I felt the same way, that the spoiler made a radical difference in the front end appearance. The car should hasve been produced this way.
I'm glad Riverside Infiniti came through for us with a better price than us ordering from Japan.

Finally done!

Got mine finished up this morning.
I started yesterday but my wife had family coming for dinner, so my play time was cut short. I placed the templates yesterday and finished up this morning.

Sorry for the poor pics, I was in a hurry this morning... even my tire dressing is still wet.
I'l post some better ones sometime soon.

After:

I have the Stillen front plate bracket. I removed it for the install and took pics before putting it back on.

One thing I hated about the bracket is that it always looked crooked when seen from an angle. With this new front lip, it looks 100% better. I'll be sure to include that in my next pics.
